BEGIN

BEGIN – merely take a step in the right direction,
Without thinking about failure or perfection.

For the important thing is that you start,
Constructing the vision in your heart.

Odds are you won’t get it done in a day,
It might take years of you chipping away.

But a little progress is still progress,
It adds up to make more from less.

So do not let procrastination,
Keep you from your destination.

For when you BEGIN momentum is created,
That would not exist if you had waited.

It generates the power to learn and the energy to grow,
It makes the world turn and gets ideas to flow.

If you BEGIN others may be inspired,
To pursue the things they’ve always desired.

Still, I think of the lost souls and dearly departed,
With dreams wasted because they never got started.

There are many thoughts that try to stop you; they pop up in your mind,
Like ‘I’m too old, I’m too tired, or I don’t have the time’.

But fight to embark on your mission,
Move just a bit from your current position.

And perhaps you stopped something; you started before,
Just go back and get it going once more.

Finally, your beginning may come to an end,
That’s simply when you BEGIN something again.

So, no matter where you’re at or the condition you’re in,
On your mark, get set… BEGIN.
